Hello all,

I'm playing with block agendas and I'm wondering how to set a
specific buffer
name.

In non-block agendas, I can set the buffer name like this:
(setq org-agenda-custom-commands (append
  '(
     ("p" "Simple list of active projects" tags-todo
"PRIORITY<\"C\"+project-inactive/-cancelled-done"
       ((org-agenda-prefix-format " %?-12t% s")
        (org-agenda-buffer-name "Top Level Active Projects")
        (org-agenda-sorting-strategy (quote (priority-down)))))

But I can't find where to specify org-agenda-buffer-name in a custom block
agenda - for example,
in the docs:
https://orgmode.org/manual/Block-agenda.html

Where would I add the org-agenda-buffer-name?

Thanks,
--Nate

I found it in this section of the docs:
https://orgmode.org/manual/Setting-options.html#Setting-options

I had unbalanced parenthesis in Feb. and gave up.  I was finally able to
find the right
place to put the options for all the commands (see org-agenda-buffer-name)
below.

I create variables and used functions to modularize my code - otherwise the
parenthesis
become unbearable IMHO.

(setq org-agenda-custom-commands '())
(defun njn-define-block-agenda()
    (setq njn-agenda '(("h" "Agenda and Projects (Home)"
        ((agenda )
         (tags "-projectA-projectB-projectC/next\|started"
((org-agenda-todo-ignore-with-date nil)))
         (tags "projectA-inactive/-cancelled-done"
            ((org-agenda-prefix-format " %?-12t% s")
             (org-agenda-sorting-strategy (quote (priority-down)))))
         (tags "projectA-inactive/-cancelled-done"
            ((org-agenda-prefix-format " %-16(njn-get-proj-property)
%?-12t% s")
             (org-tags-exclude-from-inheritance (remove "projectA"
org-tags-exclude-from-inheritance))
             (org-agenda-group-by-property "PROJ"))))
         ((org-agenda-buffer-name "Home")))))
    (setq org-agenda-custom-commands (append njn-agenda
org-agenda-custom-commands)))
(njn-define-block-agenda)

I realize this is opening a can of worms -- does anyone have
recommendations for formatting
Lisp code?  The above code is legible for me *right now* but in about 3
months the code will once
again be a paren-fest.

Thanks,
--Nate
